My wife bought a rotisserie chicken, so we made stock with the carcass. Its just so good to get 5 liters of stock from what would be garbage. Tattler lids worked well today, only one didn’t seal. I don’t normally do that well. Easier to get them to seal in a water bath.

    Making stock from rotisserie carcasses is so much fun! I freeze mine rather than can, but these look quite good!

    I usually use a brew bag for cooking the carcasses in; they’re designed to be heat resistant and it makes separating the bones from the stock so much easier.

      Do you have blocks (frozen zip bags?) of stock in the freezer, and just toss one in the crock pot when you need some?

        I use mason jars. Not great because they can crack if too full, but they’re easy to organize and measure. Each jar is about 1.5 cups of stock, or more if I dilute with water to make broth.
